i am curious to know if anyone could help me with billing G0289 to medicare or should it be 29877.
help:
 
if the chondroplasty was performed independently...with absolutely NO other procedures you will use the 29877.

If there were other knee scope procedures performed at the same surgical setting, AND your documentation supports that the chondroplasty was done in a TOTALLY DIFFERENT compartment than the other knee procedure, you will use the G0289 secondary to the primary procedure performed.
